The power of inclusive leadership faces a significant headwind today, even though diverse perspectives are the cornerstone of societal and organizational problem-solving. By adopting a diversity joy practice, values-driven leaders foster an environment in which inclusive leadership and happiness are prioritized over homogeneous hierarchies. This alignment creates a culture where diversity and well-being result in a fulfilled, joyful workforce whose collective engagement naturally strengthens leadership and produces a better bottom line. To discover where inclusive leadership and happiness converge, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen welcomes strategist, facilitator, and consultant S. Leigh Thompson (he/they). S. Leigh Thompson explores strategies for employers and employees align with their values and embrace, acknowledge, and work with diversity, equality, and inclusion to cultivate individual and collective joy.
